These Intricacies is a book of poems traversing the intersection of family, fatherhood, and faith. Set in shifting, vibrant spaces of a rich Kentucky landscape, and wrought with metaphysical crisis, this collection charts the slow, seismic shifts of growth bound up in understanding the nature of home. Dangling between struggle and tranquility, the poems in These Intricacies evoke a contemplative exploration of masculinity and vocation as the poet and reader journey together to discover and dissolve the discontinuities of how we are loved and how we can love others.

These poems are meaty enough, and long enough that I should not quote them here but I especially appreciate the nine part Novena at the books center, book ended by On Prayer #1 and On Prayer #2. Other poems of note include Trigger--a poem about a man in a gun shop contemplating a gun purchase, Hallelujah, I'm a Bum, Atropos, At Pleasant Hill to Visit Shakertown, and the prose poem After Chuck's Zen Garden. It is a strong collection, but these are my favorites.
The title is taken from a line in George Oppen's poem, "Blood From a Stone." These pages are full of allusions and references to mythology, theology, philosophy, literature. These are layered poems but not in a overt pretentious way. Harrity's words touch real emotion, particularly in relationship anxiety and struggles with faith. And of course, beautifully written. ( )
